This is the problem with youtube and other social sites, there are people out there always looking to screw others over ...there needs to be better security... I have other reactor channels I like to view were I have been "sent messages by the supposed creator". I always used Xtreme language when dealing with them...the algorithm really likes that.. to be honest I haven't seen it for over 2 months now. No authentic creator would do such things . And no honest subscriber would create a fake account.

This song is special to me because one day, my dad and my youngest son had gone to the store. They pulled into the driveway and sat there blaring this song as they sang it at the top of their lungs, in pure joy. My youngest was about 8 at the time. Both he and his grampa are gone now, each from different forms of cancer, only a few years apart. So every time I hear this, I can see them sitting there singing happily - " More more more!"
Well GenXers, we did it! He said he's "sick of rap"! Now he understands why a good portion of us can't stand it either. We grew up with the music he has STARTED to listen to in the last year. We take for granted how spoiled we were growing up in the 70's & 80's. Hip hop & rap really started to take off in the 90s and we, as a generation said "nope" and found the nearest "classic" rock station and pegged our radios to it. "Bruv", keep up your expanding horizons of music, there is still so much more out there. Well done!
@@deborahpaley21 Obviously all the bands I grew up listening to were "boomers". But the fans were US, the Xers. Most of the boomers I knew were listening to 50s music (Do Wop, Elvis, etc.) I personally am not claiming ownership of the creation of the music, just the appreciation of it and the dollars WE spent buying it. So to quote young people "OK, Boomer". You are acting like GenZ. Don't read so much into it.
Yea I have to say I grew up in the 80s im so glad my parents always had good music playing very musical household I don't have a time machine but this is close😊
@@markh.7650 i don't know any boomers listening to elvis and do wop. that's ridiculous. you're acting like gen x, oh yeah, taking credit for shit that ain't yours. billy idol was born in '55. i was born in '54. gen x starts in ''65. so get over it. who cares if you were a fan. in '84 a gen-xer would be 4-19 (for this song). it ain't YOURS. nirvana is yours. why can't you give boomers credit for anything? it's pathetic. WE had the best music. you were just the audience. i am only saying this because i see so many gen-xers acting like they invented the wheel when they did nothing.
Can we appreciate the fact that no one really expected him to survive the 80's and here he is still rocking his concerts? How's that for epic? What a voice he has! Insane how effortlessly he can go from a soothing smooth voice to a literal rebel yell!!! What a talent Billy Idol is!!! 🤘🤘🤘
Steve Stevens is one of the most underrated guitarists alive. He's always had the respect of other guitarists, just didn't get the lime light as much as he deserved. He is still going strong, playing like a beast!
It fills me with utter joy seeing someone younger than me realising that pop/rock music from the 70's and 80's was so superior to anything that's produced these days.
Me too I remember my older brother's sister was so into him in the 80s I believe this song came out around 84 and I was 10 love music from my childhood.
What is amazing is the Billy and Steve are still playing these tunes together both live and acoustic. They are nearly 70 years old and still sound great!
You got goosebumps… imagine seeing these concerts live! Nothing like it today.… the 80s were the most amazing time of my life. I wish I could go back every day!
I was at a multi-band concert YEARS AGO… but still past Idol’s prime. These concerts always have one or two “surprise guests”… and they usually aren’t great. So people would file out in droves to go smoke, go to the bathroom, etc. Then the announcer said: “BILLYYYY IDOLLLL”. Imagine about 8000 people, halfway out the gates ALL RUSHING TO GET BACK IN. And there he was… the hair, the lip, good ole Billy. It was awesome.
I was a dj in the 80's - weddings, school dances etc. Rebel Yell always got the crowd going. And Steve Stevens, the guitarist, was and still is well respected.
@@mrbamfo5000 read the words! When Billy Idol “first” came out, “metal wasn’t huge”. I lived through it. Frequently in and out of the studio with friends, etc…
It is an absolute joy to be able to watch your reactions, and actually see what great music can do to a human soul. This experience is changing you, in the best possible way 😊
Steve Stevens the guitarist is one badass. This is the early 80's where music was evolving from punk into pop/metal/hard rock. The keyboard was basically I requirement.
Steve Stevens, the (excellent) guitarist, not only played on most of Billy's best albums, but also provided the guitar solo for Michael Jackson's 'Dirty Diana' and played the guitar on the 'Top Gun Anthem' from the soundtracks for Top Gun and Maverick (as well as doing a bunch of under-rated session work, and playing the guitar part for Juno Reactor's track 'Pistolero'). When my then-girlfriend won a pair of tickets to see Billy Idol quite a few years back, she didn't understand why I was so excited that Steve Stevens was touring with him.
I don't blame you for pausing it so much, little brother. I've been listening to it for 40yrs & it still ain't old to me. I was 9 when it came out 🇺🇸🇬🇧
Back in the late 1970s Billy Idol fronted a punk band called Generation X. "Wild Youth", "King Rocker", "Ready Steady Go", and "One Hundred Punks" are a few of their songs if you'd like to check them out.
In the midnight hour she cried More more more!!!! Love Billy Idol will happily join you down the rabbit hole. White Wedding, Eyes without a face are great for next songs
"I dunno what it is with these songs, man." It's the fuckin' 80s, bro. That decade was legendary. . . .as you're finding out. lol I was lucky enough to grow up in the 80s and it was awesome then, as it is today. lol
Billy Idol is one of my all-time favorite artist. He was sensational in the 80's combining Punk, New Wave, & Rock n Roll. We thought that you needed to see him because he is British and had his following in the Michael Jackson era. Enjoy!
I am 63 and was 22 when this came out -- when I first saw and heard Billy. He blew my mind. He was part of the 'second British wave" in America -- New Wave. Listen real close to his voice when he sings actual lyrics -- he has a great voice. And I do not believe anyone else can growl like him. At 63 I am still a die hard Idol fan and I still bang my head to his music. He gets this old girl's blood pumping every time. I raised my son on New Wave, hard rock and Punk. It is something we share together.
I absolutely love Billy Idol. I was in my teen years when he came out and I thought that he absolutely rocked. He's from the UK, I know that he was injured in a very serious motorcycle accident and it kind of stunted his career. He's awesome. Love you MollyBoy. Peace
Rock and roll, while definitely a sound, is more an attitude. This is rock and roll. Roll with it and ROCK OUT!!! Fuckin' turn it up. Dance around the room while listening to Billy's "Dancin' With Myself," another banger.
Billy Idol was considered fairly edgy as far as pop went back then. Great performer, and many songs people dont always realize were his. Enjoy the journey.
Graduated in '85. When this came on the radio in the car, I would LOSE MY MIND, almost killed myself speeding, 16 years old, pumping my fist with the windows down, speakers blaring. This banger STILL amps me up!😅😅😊😊
Obscure fun fact. During the club scene in the early 90's... the crowd would yell in between verses of Billy Idols song Mony Mony. The lyrics went... Here she comes now saying Mony Mony. And then the crowd would yell "hey everybody get laid, get fucked" for some reason. They did it between every verse and I'm not sure why. It was bizarre and a bit immature but funny too. I can't help think of that everytime I hear Billy Idol.
When we were someplace where we had to clean it up a bit, we’d change it to,”Hey! Hey what?! She’s fat, I’m drunk!” During the chorus we would also chant,”f’ing bullsh*t” during all the “so goods”. Yes, it was childish, but that was the 80s! It was a blast!
That goes way back. The big amusement park near me has a ride that spins around and blasts rock music, everyone screams those in between parts, like Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer
So excited🤗 You are getting great requests, so much you need to see & hear while having your mind blown! Love that you're loving the different genres of rock 👌 Doing an excellent job!!! 🤘
I don't think Steve Stevens ever got the proper respect he deserved as a guitarist. Maybe because of coming from the punk side of things? He's one stellar kick ass guitarist!
Rock from the 60s through the 80s is simply the best...nothing else can compare. There was just this energy, vibe and creativity that doesn't exist today...sadly.
The Rebel Yell originated in the American Civil War. When confederate troops were ordered to attack, they would scream at the top of their lungs. It had to be terrifying in battle to hear advancing troops, sometime 50 thousand of them, screaming and running toward Union lines. There is also a rather nice bourbon whiskey by that name
Billy Idol is from your side of the pond born in Middlesex, England. Im supprised you have not heard of this famous song. I recomend Billy Idol - Cradle Of Love !
I heard them recently and the lead guitar is still incredible. Billy still sings really well but I was surprised that the guitar was so amazing - back when Billy idol was everywhere I didn’t notice the guitar player.

🤘🤘🤘
It’s funny all these rockstars outlived the pop star sweethearts like MJ, George Michael, Prince, Whitney etc…
What's insane...is his voice is BETTER than it was back then.
He puts out solid music still, too.
I totally did NOT expect him to survive the 80's!!!
@@maryreilly5092 he barely did. His newer songs Bitter Taste and Running From The Ghost are about that actually
“dancing with myself” and “eyes without face” both are amazing 😍
Eyes is a whole vibe ♥️
@@tempest_91 yesss 🙂↕️❤️
White Wedding?
White wedding is it !
Love Eyes Without a Face 😍
Steve Stevens is one of the most underrated guitarists alive. He's always had the respect of other guitarists, just didn't get the lime light as much as he deserved.
He is still going strong, playing like a beast!
He’s amazing!!!!!
Love Steve Stevens!!!
Came here to say this
absolutely agree w/you !!!!
My favourite guitarist. I love his Flamenco a go go album
It fills me with utter joy seeing someone younger than me realising that pop/rock music from the 70's and 80's was so superior to anything that's produced these days.
Everybody out there ready to scream "More More More" while pumping the fist? ✊😁
Wasn't quite thinking -Pumping a Fist- more ...More... MORE!!!
Hell yeah Bruh!😎
Oh YESSS!
Yes and it feels great.😊
A seriously underrated musician, the 80’s wouldn’t have been half as good without Billy Idol!
I remember when this song used to come on MTV every 30 minutes in the 80’s. Great time to be a kid.
Man was it a great time to be a kid growing up? This song will take you back
yeah if your cable service got mtv you saw white wedding rebel yell and dancing with myself.
Me too I remember my older brother's sister was so into him in the 80s I believe this song came out around 84 and I was 10 love music from my childhood.
I still want my MTV!
@@juliejanzen819 same here. Reality shows ruined it.
I always thought of Billy Idol as the pop star who dressed punk, but played rock and roll. He kind of built his own niche.
Best description ever my friend!
It was a strange time. If Punk and Hair Bands had a child that played Rock, it's Billy Idol.
Billy started off in the punk band generation x, king rocker and into the valley of the dolls are their biggest sellers.
@@andrewwilliamson5121 Didn't know that. Thanks. I'll check it out. If I can find it.
@@magicbrownie1357 you're welcome, hope you find and enjoy them
Billy Idol is a LEGEND🤘🏻No need to apologise. It's an absolute banger. Enjoy
What is amazing is the Billy and Steve are still playing these tunes together both live and acoustic. They are nearly 70 years old and still sound great!
He's a grandpa now. 🤯Cool grandpa to have! 😎
Yep. And both still brilliant. They recently had a tune out being played all the time.
You can never go wrong with some Billy Idol, the king of the sneer.
Well said...
Elvis was King of the sneer. Billy Idol revered Elvis and copied the sneer. He even said so.
SO glad I grew up in the 80’s. No time like it, and never will be again.
The 80's were so lit. The weird clothes, hair and insanely great music. It was common to find people listening to all kinds of genres, too.
And people just enjoying the concerts in the here and now, no phones and recording stuff. Sigh...
Next Billy Idol song must be Mony Mony!!!
Such a powerful duel with his backing vocals!!
Their sync is so unbelievably on point!!
That's a cover. It was originally done by Tommy James and the Shondells in 1968.
Of course it was a cover. . But no one, ever will match Billy Idol.
Exactly !!!@@justtere
At the clubs we responded…”get laid, get f*cked” lol ahhhhh I LOVED the 80’s!!!
69 years old and still love Billy Idol😄😄
Then it will please you to know, my 4-month-old niece goes absolutely ape-shit for this song, lol. It's timeless.
Same age... had the same haircut and colour that time and have it now again... but in grey...😂❤
I saw him in concert several years back and he still rocks it’
You got goosebumps… imagine seeing these concerts live! Nothing like it today.… the 80s were the most amazing time of my life. I wish I could go back every day!
@Steph we all do 😢😢
Cradle of Love is another good Billy Idol tune
great tune.
Billy Idol is in a class by himself. He's still rocking out just as hard and with just as much charisma and his voice at 67!
FUN Changeup!! Steve Stevens is the REAL DEAL...
Fcking BEAST 🔥🔥🔥
Steve Stevens is definitely an underrated talent on guitar.
True dat
Any guitar solo he does just goes up your spine and just makes you feel alive.
New Wave (English rock bands soar into USA like the Beatles long before them) The Cars , Billy Idol, Flock of Seagulls. I was there.
Billy Idol + Steve Stevens = 🔥🔥🔥
There is no age for good music, Billy Idol rocks!
I so miss the 80's.
I cant describe how big billy was when i graduated high school 1985
Dancing with Myself is a good Billy Idol tune.
He has so many good songs ❤
YESSS
Yes!
Flesh for fantasy and Eyes without a face are great songs.
Dude plays his part PERFECTLY. He's the epitome of cool.
I was at a multi-band concert YEARS AGO… but still past Idol’s prime. These concerts always have one or two “surprise guests”… and they usually aren’t great. So people would file out in droves to go smoke, go to the bathroom, etc.
Then the announcer said: “BILLYYYY IDOLLLL”. Imagine about 8000 people, halfway out the gates ALL RUSHING TO GET BACK IN. And there he was… the hair, the lip, good ole Billy. It was awesome.
I'm 62 and LOVE turning this tune UP and driving 80 miles on the freeway!! Just Awesome track! Thanks for reaacting to Mr IDOL!!
Yeah!
I was a dj in the 80's - weddings, school dances etc. Rebel Yell always got the crowd going. And Steve Stevens, the guitarist, was and still is well respected.
Omg me too I was 17 had to stand on a box to que in my records. With an Adam ant stripe in my hair!! PS female
The Rebel Yell music video is played on a TV in the movie Big with Tom Hanks
Imagine this being the soundtrack to your life when you're in your 20's and we were all wild and crazy...🤣 It was fun.
Hell yes! We were so damn lucky.
@@steph____no Mobile phones
We lived to talk about it!
@@ksborder Rock On brother
fuck yes it was!!!
so fun. and everywhere.
and everybody.
In the 80's we listened to every thing, Iron Maiden, Rush, Zeppelin, Bel Biv Devo, Billy Idol, anybody everything. I miss that now 🤘
One thing you have to understand is that when Billy idol first came out, Metal wasn’t all over the place. So he was kind of heavy for pop music.
Metal was out before Billy. This song came out and was a favorite with the strippers off post.
@@mrbamfo5000 read the words! When Billy Idol “first” came out, “metal wasn’t huge”. I lived through it. Frequently in and out of the studio with friends, etc…
Metal was huge in the 70s. Most popular rock baNds were Zepplin, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, lots of heavy rock in the 79s.
@@donnadubyak6504 Hard rock was big in the 70’s but Zeppelin and DP are not metal. Sabbath was always metal.
Heavy rotation.
Billy Idol is one of the greatest things the Brits ever gave the US 😂
This Song is Still AWESOME after all these Years
It is an absolute joy to be able to watch your reactions, and actually see what great music can do to a human soul. This experience is changing you, in the best possible way 😊

Generation X also did Valley of the Dolls. Well worth a listen
The 80s were my teenage years. Best music ever! Great reaction.
This dude still killing it! Grate choice!!
Absolute no doubt banger of the 80's
In the midnight hour she cried More more more!!!! Love Billy Idol will happily join you down the rabbit hole. White Wedding, Eyes without a face are great for next songs
Welcome to more 80's music. We had goosebumps nonstop in that decade.
This cracks me up. I was in high school listening to this in the 80s. We rocked! Thanks for the flashback!
80’s were a wicked time to to be a teenager. Chandeliers swung on the ceiling with floors buckling to a shitload of great music!!!
Dancing with Myself is another great Billy Idol song! You'll love and enjoy it!
theres no way you can sit still when there is a Billy Idol song playing! so fun!!
"I dunno what it is with these songs, man."
It's the fuckin' 80s, bro. That decade was legendary. . . .as you're finding out. lol I was lucky enough to grow up in the 80s and it was awesome then, as it is today. lol
Billy was one who really lived the rockstar life with crazy antics ,partying, over indulgence, hotel trashing etc etc etc ....
Charmed Life, “Pumping on Steel,” fires me up every time!
To Be A Lover is another great song from Billy Idol!
Totally. Yhe video is epic
He is one of my favorite singers of all time. And I can’t wait until he gets to the rock ‘n’ roll Hall of Fame, which he royally deserts

With all the metalwork he’s got inside him from his motorbike accidents, he’s particularly fast heading magnetic north!
Billy Idol is punk rock. All of his songs are top 10 hits. He never sang a bad song...ever!

Anything on the entire Rebel Yell album is fire. It is a perfect album.

Best music ever Billy Idol . Am 79 and still loving it❤
Yes! We may be old but we are STILL rocking

Eyes Without a Face is an incredible song by Idol
The 80's brought music that touched hearts, souls and filled us with all emotions. ✨🔥🔥🔥🔥
Billy Idol was my mom’s favorite artist growing up so she played it all the time around the house
Fuck yeah! 80s punk pop. Billy Idol ruled in the 80s.
Even had a softer love ballad... "Eyes Without a Face". Topped the charts.
Graduated in '85. When this came on the radio in the car, I would LOSE MY MIND, almost killed myself speeding, 16 years old, pumping my fist with the windows down, speakers blaring. This banger STILL amps me up!😅😅😊😊

Billy Idol 💙...White Wedding another awesome song...
